Surely this price cannot be correct.



Bru,
This link takes you to a ticket "re-seller", do you have those ? They buy tickets to everything (football, baseball, concerts, opera, etc.) and then they mark them up and sell them again. The "original" price on those seats from the box office would have been $45.00 dollars US. That's how they make their money. I have used them for baseball games in Baltimore when I wanted to sit up front - can't get those seats any other way - unless you own them.

So that's not the "original" price. I paid 45 dollars per seat from the box office.
